Join Professor Lisa Harvey-Smith for a night of fascinating insight into astronomy and the future of our night sky with the debut of her novel When Galaxies Collide. Lisa’s research peers 5.86 billion years into the future to consider the fate of Earth and its inhabitants. Will the solution be to live in space without a planet to call home? Will one of the other 100 billion planets spawn life?

You'll never look up at the night sky in the same way.
